Awesome summery of last few days



Went to geelong show, spent lotta money, stood around watching people, noticed that just about all the couples there have similar body types. nicole insists it's the skull shape. I need a new hobby.
While I went to see sheep at agriculture tend, grandma went "oh look meg, sheep!" turned around to see a bunch or hung, bloody, decapitated sheep. Tact.
I DID see some alive sheep, the heritage breeds were gorgeous.
Won a giant panda, yay

Also got exalted with sha tari, also got trinkie, funny SS

New physics student teacher, apparently dropped out of physics course because it made him hate life and decided teaching was easier, haha.
he has a bad habit of if you have a question, explaining it, then when somone say I get it, ty taking up another ten min of class time going though 10 more examples like he cant hear us.
He also while explaining tends to go down into a mumble "light acts as a particle and wave kdjgtht snell's law dhgudhguhilzngh and that's why I hate peanuts" and we're like, what?
Yeah....

anaesthetic [sic]








I suppose in a culture built on sexuality and how things appear, I might have my dig at it.





This was sort of bought on by watching America's next top model or some bullocks like that and having this thing on how beauty is mostly defined by symmetry and thought I'd investigate that, see if I can chop off half my face and regrow a copy of the other half thanks to DEAD BABY research.



























The first is an original, this sorta made me think,


WOW my eyebrows are really weird and non




symmetrical, need to pluck, Glasses crooked also I look like I have 2 bla

ck eyes and need sleep. 'Nother tangent, yeah.


The altered symmetry on the left looks a bit younger in my opinion,beside the fact I look grumpy and tired. Shorter chin, smaller, wider face. kinda not as pretty symmetrical as I hoped, I'm marginally more pleased with the one on the right, looks allot more cheerful and defined features in my opinion, longer, thinner and brighter eyes. the symmetry is allot better, the face is spread out and such.






My general conclusion is that I really don't look much prettier in the mirror. Maybe I'm just not beautiful in general and that's why this doesn't work, or maybe it only works on the TV's or post photo shop. regardless, I'm sure the general conclusion would be, myth busteeeed

Super happy awesome!





I went to melbournes and saw, ran from Tom cruise, photo evidence, he was pouncing on me!!!!! XP










I also had a delicious breakfast at invista (spelling?) a vegetarian/vegan cafe outside victoria markets. The potato rosti was a little blander than usual though, but you problay dun care about that xP










I also got one of those mario mushroom candies, EPIC, I seriously don't know how that game didn't get a drug advisory "...Woah....I just ate this mushroom and my hands are HUGE! and I feel INVINCIBLE!?" yeah, but now I can go up to ppl offering mushroom candy telling them it'll make them large and invincible....maybe not!










I also baught some mogu mogu and chocolate I'm eyeing off right now that is very unfortunately, not mine......Yeah....










But seriously, for a small chain company, the consistency of the quality of chocolate is FABULOUS! It's easily my favourite chocolate company after the late Chocolate fire, you will be missed. Lots off SUPER dark choc, up to 99%.


I also finished my oddish toy and nearly all my cosplay, still need my hat, some gloves I can buy and staff detail..*cough*










Oh, oh! awesome shoelaces too. they haff smiley faces!!!!!!!!!!

Revolutionary Girl Utena


Btw, don't steal my images, I ripped them cows




A very confusing show to say the least, with most of the concepts being hard to grasp some seeming very sick or unnessisary until much later (ie; characters ripping off their shirts, taking people for a ride in cars changing their life and phallic looking towers)
For a summery off wikipedia
The main character is Utena Tenjou, a tomboyish teenage girl who was so impressed by a kind prince in her childhood that she decided to become a prince herself (expressed in her manner of dress and personality). She attends Ohtori Academy, where she meets a student named Anthy Himemiya, a girl who is in an abusive relationship with another student. Utena fights to protect Anthy and is pulled into a series of sword duels with the members of the Student Council. Anthy is referred to as the "Rose Bride" and is given to the winner of each duel. As Anthy is thought to be the key to a coming revolution, the current champion is constantly challenged for the right to possess the Rose Bride.












This series is fantastic in its use of symbology, using archetypal images (Prince, princess, witch, demon, bride, villagers) as the basis for characters. If you look into these simplistic images, it's the key to unraveling the mystery of the loosely threaded plot. (Anthy having Chu Chu, a familiar and changing people into animals, Utena's transformation from a princess to prince, back again, Dios' transformation into Akio, a princess waiting for someone to save him)


I find Dios very interesting, at first I thought hmmm, he isn't real, is he? is he just the car Utena is riding on so to say? if you look at the ending credits, you can see how aloof he is and ectomorphic.














The whole "lesbian" thing in this series is overrated, and that's me saying that, the first few eps are dodgey just to grab attention from the mail masses. The starting cerdits would drive anyone off......ewwwwww






It rode on this ideal of changing the world or a characters view on it (Jury's feverous desire to disprove miracles that seems to happen to everyone but her). Often, these desires include revolutionising another person, which brings up the can of worms of "you can only change yourself" attitude in psychology. Which I agree with.











The main idea of true revoltion atthe end, the Akio car saga. It's an embodiment of what Akio wants, he rides apon the Ohtori (his number plate) academy to regain his powers, his revolution.








(Oh come on, you all know the academy isn't a normal place, right?)







When you watch the movie you see Anthy's Car being Utena, and Utena's car being the student council, her friends. Which brings up interesting ideas about motives...But that movie is stupid and refuse to acknowledge it!!!!!

There is also some interesting imagery in the background, baloons, animals, elephants, apples, cars, chairs, removal of clothes (it symbolises an opening of the person that wouldn't normaly happen btw!!!) that the characters seem to not notice! I think that the message in this is too easy to miss and isnt overly relevent unless you want to analyse the heck out of this series, which would be a bit of a task...
































The main thing I took out of this series is Dios remains a seperate entity, as Akio was a "lord of the flies" before he was imbued with the power of Dios.
















As, after all, there seems to be alot of dialog and interaction between Dios and other characters that Akio doesn't understand, in fact, the whole sword of Dios remains seperate from Akio when the duels are going on, and the whole spirit of Dios inhabiting Utena is heavily implied. But I'm not sure how far you'd get on that tangent as there isnt much beside the series to examine.
































Just pay close attention or you'll get left behind with the car taking driving off without you and guys ripping their shirts off o.o (Show me a way that can't be seen as dodgey and I'll show you a liar)
Any ways, I'm done my rant for now, I just found some stuff in this series facinating and recomend you give it a try!

EX-freaking-ZAMS

I'm a tad overwhelmed lately. Even when I'm peeing I have a paper beside me!


I've been churning through through some while playing WoW (sorry if I got you killed or my brbs annoyed you btw)


Anyway, I have them done next week so I should be back to 'normal'


My GAT is kinda freaking me out, I have no idea what to expect, will it cover stuff I wouldn't know yet since it's a general test meant for a year above me....erghhhhh.....I found out yesterday there's a massive writing section, and looking at past papers, it's purposely made so nobody can relate or fel any passion for the subject (diamond mining....lol)


Physics is intimidating me and I've stuffed up my circut somehow, teacher says he has no idea, I think from my probing with a voltmetre that is must be the USB, but that's all too late >>

Anyway, please say hi, very stressed

Eeeeeeewwwwwwww





I just snapped off my toenail today. Nasty as.
I mean, the WHOLE NAIL gone.
Did I mention it's tender? ._.
I did it vacuuming the house, running over food with vacuume, yelping and falling over, whacking foot against door ^^
Anyway~ I'm super psyched about the upcoming soul silver and heart gold remakes, but ticked off by character remakes, OMG that 11yo girl has tiny tits!!!!!! how dare she. Seriously, our socity is way too sexualised. When I went to see the star trek movie a few nights ago I was quite agast with shock....just how blatently violent and sexualised it was and the Mary sue-ness of Kirk.
Who does everything right by BREAKING THE RULES
Who shows Spock that his attempt at hitting some maturity into idiots like him could only be "beaten" by BREAKING THE RULES (or proving his point)
Maturity is for losers and girls *wink*
He acheives sucess and aclaim by following his nub of a penis (heart) and BREAKING THE RULES
By being the saver-er of the day by being a total rebal and "hottie". You cant save the world without a waxed chest and immaculate hair that can survive snow, wind, teleportation and sleep and fire (B&B anyone?)? (guys who don't have hair freak me out, I prefer men not prepubecent boys? ty?)
His cocky attitude, ego fapping, rule breaking, thinking the whole world should think like him and lack of company pride makes him a wholey lovable person
I liked the slightly more subdued original, he was a rebel or w/e, but he was at least a bit more concerned for people around him beyond how it affects his hairdo and RULE BREAKING AND HAKZOOOR SKILLZ
Most dissapointed by lack of hair though, lolololololol
Oh gosh, does he pluck his eyebrows too -.-

Wow it's been a while

Well, today I hit 80, have ANEW HAIRCUT curtesy of Roccoco, 100$ discount O.o and had my specs and gear ripped up by my first heroic teamates. Unholy is my future raid tank spec foos, I dual spec, or cant you count past one? huh?
Whatever.
Anyway, just a random stream of current thoughts copied offa my aim profle-y

Current thoughts~
The elusiveness of true 'popularity' is perfectly summed up in this quote,

If Barbie is so poular, why must we buy her friends?

Becuase, friends are harder to come buy than peons.
Barbie doesn't make her own friends, someone else has to "buy", or put in all the effort for them.

But we do forget barbie is plastic (ie, in a dificult situation she can't *cough* bebothered *cough change) and can't think or make desicions for herself :S

I, and poeple I assosiate with, tend to have fewer peons and more ~friends~.
I might be judgemental, but I have high standards for you haters who don't live up to them Lols




Agree wholeheartedly. Media cencorship ftl. It misses the main points. Looking at you Dragon ball Z

obsession of the week!!! Stick to fun!




As most who know me know, I love pocky...not eating it, no way in heck could you pay me to consume it =p







I adore the boxes, the assortment of terrible flavours that decide maybe people will eat turds if they're ductile and dyed purple, pink, green or brown and labled with a catchy slogan. Who can argue with THE super snack?!?!?







Not Cheery.







My current conquests are brazillian pudding, hokkaido melon, and kobe red wine flavours.







My fav is the footlong crunchy strawberry btw. No, I'm not opening it and you cannot have it.....
Yes I'm wearing an allience shirt haters can suck it.

A few are missing too, blueberry and the low calorie, as well as thin pocky. couldnt fit on ;-;

NINJA TOWN (aka, shameless, shameless menchendise peddleing) ....but sooooo cute






















Very, very cute. Shamelessly peddling the shawnimals wares.






I found the merchandise so stupidly overpriced I bootleg my own. bwahahaha......






Anyway, nuff about me retard ninjas!












Graphics






Simple, but effective in getting the message across (anti ninjas orange, stick out from stealthy counterparts, ect) Very cute, but basic. Doesn't do much that hasn't been done....






But they're ninjas....with no joints! SQUEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEeeeeee!!!!1!!!11!one!1!












7/10












Sound






Nothing special. Repetitive in ingame music. Basically same every lvl, bash noise, kyaaa, you know the drill dudes






5.5/10












Gameplay






It's very easy to pick up. A good tower/defense game.






It consists on placing ninjas with different abilities down at a fixed position, buff buildings.












You get tossed a few cookies in the form of Ol' Master ninja powers, obtained by killing crud as well as tokens. Obtained when you successfully complete a level, are special ninjas who have a set time/area duration. Like, baby ninja is placed in a spot to slow down demons with their goo-ing and gaa-ing. Or The one armed ninja consultant speeds up your ninjas with motivating presentations












The strategy isn't complex at any stage. ie; need to kill bully to win, by normally killing crud to get ol' master power isn't gonna get you far, place few training dojos for extra cookies and power. Simple, right?












Simple, effective






7.5/10












Plot






Simple, yet effective. We are pulled into the plot by its rediculous cuteness, world domination by evil cookies. Diabolical.






7.5/10












Overall, Simple, yet effective..... overall 7/10

.................











I have no idea exactly what happened buuut....my psp's lcd smashied. I had it in my inner blazer pocket on way to school. On arrival, I took it out to a shocking sight......I mean, how did it happen? did I have steel nipples or what?!?!?!?!







maybe it was weak and just a lil jolt did it? erghh.







Anyway, I wanna talk about.....







Dun, dun DUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUN!







The SOLUTION!







Moonshell, or DS organise, is a fantastic little multi purpose program bundle/organiser.







Very unstable. Like, more unstable than Brittany Spears on speed







It has calender function, todo list, calculator, file browser/player, planner, address book, IRC, we browser, homebrew database AND a paintesque thing! yay scribbling.







Getting guru meditation errors every 5min...cant be great! but I get teddeh, so....







yeah :D







Happy














I rate interface as 7/10. it's great and simple, clear....but deceptively fiddly. It constantly crashes and corrupts itself if you do ANYTHING it doesnt like. click things in the wrong order, breathe in its presence, ect. So I just wanna emphasise how FREAKING ANNOYING this is for people without hours blank in their lives


the graphics are sooooo basic. unless you dma, the rendering will just not.

even when it does render web images for example, it'll conk quick. stupid non existent ram.

2/10


the sound...has a mac startup.... 9/10


the overall use experience when working is fab. hellllo, scribble pad?!?!?!?

it really is very awesome and fast, despite fragile-ness

8/10

overall, I recommend this to people who are slightly competent. I mean... *I* set this up

Trauma centre








Trauma centre is really guilty fun people TRY and pass as educational.




These doctors, to my knowledge, aren't captain planet, pikachu, David Tennant OR Meg.




So, why on earth do they seem to be able to call up infinite knowledge on will and have magical powers?




Anyway! I'll save rant for review, *drum roll*








Gameplay




I think the gameplay/interface is very clear and easy to get the hang of.




You're gently eased into the game, controls and being a doctor, them your thrown in the water, with cement blocks on your feet, a bomb that will explode in 10 seconds AND an annoying nurse that can talk underwater.




But yes, I think there needs to be a mid ground in difficulty progression.




There also seems to be a lil difficulty in the drainer ma bob. I suck at squeezing puss outta in (ha...ha) So I blame this on a bug.




The tools are, stitches, knife, tweezers, drainermabob, needle, laser, antibiotic gel, hands, bandages and magnification.




This is not medically accurate, you cannot cure supercancer.....okay?




gameplay is GREAT, despite having no non-operating gameplay and a dodgy drainer and no mid ground difficulty




8/10








Graphics




Are pwnsome.




Great use of 3D graphics on your vict-I mean patients, simple and clear enough to get the message across *this is a tumor* not your mother in law, nice character artwork. Yaaaaay




9/10








Sound




Repetitive, simple, not out of ordinary. You have Gill woman yelling out "doctor" "let's begin"




That made my day?




6/10








Plot




Full of holes, not very immersing. There are no complex character relationships or plights that gained a reaction beyond "No, you can't have my change...."




Your anaesthesiologist seems to know everything about all types of bombs.....after all, she went out with a guy on bomb squad... quote, "I dated a guy on bomb squad...trust me on this"




The AIDS ridden African kid you save has secret keys and files to some terrorist facility. Way too nutty and convenient, even for a video game.




I really don't care if your sister dies. Sorry




3/10








Overall, it's fun, 6.5
Not very immersing or special. Not stealing the place of Miles Edgeworth or Kirby in my heart any time soon. *strokes kirby plushie*








Btw, Rob, if you read this, can I have my manifest photos disk back...I want my pics of plushie kirby in kisuke hat back.....

Ace attorney series review










Ace attorney is fabulous! The plot and characters are engrossing, the art is nice, the actual gameplay is more like a book where you have to figure out half the plot along the way, as the story is liner and has NO flexibility.




Plus....Edgeworth is hawt








You aren't utilising the DS unless you're screaming OBJECTION into it








Gameplay




the interface is very simple, it has two modes, investigation mode, and court mode. court record connected to the R key and upper right touch screen at all times.








Investigate foo!




when you enter a room, often a person is in it, use the TALK button to talk (coulda fooled me) click the subject you want to talk about. You can shove evidence in their face too with PRESENT (My personal fave is "attorney's badge" 'I'm a lawyer! now tell me all your deep...dark...secrets..') use EXAMINE to look around the area and MOVE to change location








Play ball!




Courtroom mode is watching the fun mostly, in CROSS EXAMINE you need to squeeze info out of the buggers with PRESS and point out contradictions with PRESENT. Occasionally you're asked to make a decision, in most cases, just believe your client is as innocent as fresh fallen snow.








gameplay is fun, but no options or free will. Too linear You're led by the hand by the arrow of doom. so as much as I love it, gotta give a 6.5.....








Graphics




The expressions are cute and the areas have pretty good detail. No 3d usage though expect for the last case of game one and appolo justice, which is SORELY underused




7/10








Sound




OBJECTION
HOLD IT
TAKE THAT




done




pure pwn




would give a 7, but Edgeworth sounds hot




9/10








Plot




Character development is great. It doesn't give a black and white view on anyone. Even Phoenix is a nutty gay stalker. I think the relationship with reoccuring darlings such as Edgeworth, Gumshoe, Fransica Von Karma, Maya, Larry/"Laurice", Dahlia Hawthorn adds another dimention to the characters.




The plot is really good, if unrealistic, the courtroom is a freaking circus, the witness, detective, prosicuter, judge is always guilty....cant we have a straight trial?




10/10








Overall, one of the BEST series ever (ignoring Apollo justice, the only thing I liked about that game is how he got screwed about by Phoenix and his "daughter") and I TOTALY reccomend 8.2/10 overall!!!

Lost in blue, survival kids DS review



(wiki sourced summery)

"two young teenagers, Keith and Skye, struggle for survival in a deserted island. The player will have to learn to use the island's natural resources to create a make-shift home away from home"



Okay, to start of, the controls of lost in blue is about as intuitive as whacking yourself over the head with a brick....let's get that straight, so this is a game for challenged, bored people (Sims fans rejoice)
That said, I kinda enjoyed the game.... the graphics were okay, the effects of the food were semi thought out, even if cooking was as difficult as quantum physics. For cereal. Anyhow!


Gameplay/interface

The realism of the stats, stomach, water and stamina were freaking stupid. you DO NOT DIE from 5 hours sleep, only a baked potato, a few guavas and a glass of water in one day...these people must have some serious metabolic problems, no wonder they need to get off the island to get MEDICAL ATTENTION.
Just about all the DS's thingos were used though, the mic, touch screen, d-pad, L+R keys for minigames. I think the mini games ask for too much precision in too little time for casual gamers however. Whenever I went to a forum on the game I was bombarded with LYK LYK! OMFGZOMGAFKLMAOBBQ! I CNT LYK, DO DA FIRE/MINIGAME!!!! LYK! HELP!
Yes, at the start of the game, you are told to make a fire, and the timing between button pushing is a lil pedantic, but not impossible. The mini game/building/cooking asks for too much from no explaining. you need to LIFT the stylus after finishing the pics. and not all of us are megtastic readers *flicks hair and giggles*
Skye was the letdown of the story progression. she's TOTALLY useless. you have to literally DRAG her everywhere. you have to tell her to eat, sleep and force her to drink. Even I, am not that blind and prissy *flicks hair*


the impossibility of these kid's metabolic rate makes plot progression hard, most time being taken gathering seaweed and twigs (erggggggh)


NOT RECOMMENDED TO ILLITERATE CASUAL GAMERS 3/10




Music


Not much to say, the usual repetitive mood sensitive blabber. no more or less.


5/10




Graphics


pretty nice! totally 3D environment that varies considerably. The loading time is rawking (using my TTDS.....ummmm, really can't say much for other, aren't TTDS's slower...? comment me if you know)


The 2D top screen and talk person display is pretty good. the 2D overhead is rather useful.


Sooooo, my verdict is, OK graphics utilised well. 7.5/10




Plot


Not much to say...you live/die, and try escape.


not much happens between Skye/Keith. (but you know behind the E rating they're humping like dogs) haha


Anyway, the first steps in the plot are finding/making basic survival tools and opening exploration. Then you see traces of human life (Zomg!)


You later find out their baddies and cannot go near them on fear on GAME OVER.


after that it REALLLLLLLLLLY speeds up, your escape!!!!!!




method one- run into the baddies hideout and take the flare gun then use Skye's raft (easiest)




method two- MUST HAVE UNIFORM AND SLEEPY MUSHROOMS spy on the boss of day time up on rafter and he will say container [number here] will be shipped in [day here].


meet the squad leader (or foreman...I forget) on way to tend his taters then feed him a sleeping shroom. take warehouse key, shove you and Skye in the box.....the waiting game begins!




method three: the transmitter. again, spy on boss around midnight, he'll say never call 99.12 spy at day, he'll say he's meeting someone at [day here] sneak an and dial away! I (you don't need to drag the stupid wretch for this) or tune to frequency 6.75 you can contact the Ocean Disaster Rescue Team. When asked what island you two love birds are on, choose the first answer (Kauia) and a rescue boat will appear up to four days later.




method four: the boat. Okay, drug the foreman/squad leader. I forgot, sowwy. take the ship key, and find fuel in same place as flare/uniform, grab the tramp and run to the boat. Goodo.




Plot is nothing but waiting, living and repetition 4/10






Way too clumsy, time consuming and lack of depth makes this out of reach for most gamers grasp.






Overall, 5.1 worth a try if you think you can handle it. Fun as bunnies to yell abuse at Skye, actual gameplay...I felt obligated to finish. not compelled








If you want the rom with or without the action replay cheats, (I used the cheats for Skye mode), gimme a yell

no OBJECTION!





omfgrotflmaoafkbrbbbq! Miles Edgeworth spinoff, I want....when's it coming out?




He runs in third person....Do YOU run in third person?




He does.




We're totaly meant to be together.
